Workshop 3 Vocal Power & Physical Presence

Workshop 3
Presentation Skills: Vocal Power and Physical Presence
Friday, 13 April 2017, SR IV, building 99, 9:30-17:30h


Outline
Where should I stand? How can I project my voice? Am I communicating my message in the best possible way? These are common concerns when giving presentations or talks in any field.

This workshop will focus on strengthening vocal power and physical presence through exercises on projection, enunciation, variation, and breath control. Relaxation techniques, physical grounding, posture awareness and gestures will also be practiced. Students will leave with a tool box of exercises and clear goals for continued improvement.
